Trump cannot help himself.

If people were protesting against him, he has to claim they were not. If he gets a small crowd, he has to claim it was big. Etc.

Many will be happy to see the troops.

Make no mistake - the caravan has been dangerous in spots. Good men have resorted to gathering in packs, so that one can watch belongings as others sleep.  And many have turned back to Honduras, requesting help with that passage.

I'm sure there are many hardships, on the road to freedom and a better life in the U.S. My grandfather told me long ago of the hardships he and his brothers encounteted as they escaped from the pogroms and hatred of Russia over a century ago.

Thank you grandpa for risking it all, for future generations.

So we will be getting the strongest of the strong, those that have endured hardships beyond description to make sure their children have a chance at a better life?

That's wonderful.

One day their grand-children will thank them for their courage and the strength to follow their dreams.

A liberal analyst actually just said

"This (birthright citizenship change) is not even something that will resonate with Trump's base - not from what I witnessed and heard this week in California"

CALIFORNIA?  Really?

Compensation for U.S. workers grew at an accelerating rate in the third quarter, a sign a historically tight labor market is yielding better pay for employees...
The increase was led by improving pay for private-sector workers. Wages and salaries, which account for about 70% of total compensation, rose 3.1% from a year earlier for private-sector workers. That was the strongest year-over-year gain since the second quarter of 2008.

For all the trillions in new debt, wage growth has barely kept up with inflation.

When you vote republican you get nothing but ripped off.

Everyone but fat drug addled racist wankers knows this.

Remember when "journalists" were writing with certainty that Kashoggi was cut up while still alive.

Was it not a hit squad?

Pretty sure that is what Trump has believed.
